This paper also draws on the experiences of one of the authors (A.J.) in managing and evaluating an organizational change process at a major specialist hospital in Adelaide, South Australia, that sought to re-orientate the hospital towards placing more emphasis on health promotion. From these three sources, a typology of four approaches of organizational arrangement to health promotion is presented. These approaches are: ‘doing a health promotion project’; ‘delegating it to the role of a specific division, department or staff’; ‘being a health promotion setting’; and ‘being a health promotion setting and improving the health of the community’. For the re-orientation of the specialist hospital to occur and be sustainable, the research indicated that over the case study period of 1994–1998 there had to be strong organizational commitment to change, supported at multiple levels of the organization, and reflected in policy and practice change. The paper concludes that more evaluative research of this type will be important if the rhetoric of healthy settings is to become a reality.

Smoking cessation in the workplace / S.M. Cruse (2001)  

Public Titre : Smoking cessation in the workplace : results of an intervention programme using nicotine patches Type de document : document électronique Auteurs : S.M. Cruse, Auteur ; N.J.D. Forster, Auteur ; G. Thurgood, Auteur ; L. Sys, Auteur Editeur : Oxford Année de publication : 2001 Collection : Occupational Medicine, ISSN 1471-8405 num. 51:8 Importance : p.501-506 Présentation : graph. Langues : Anglais (eng) Catégories : [TABAC] étude [TABAC] législation:milieu réglementé:lieu de travail [TABAC] sevrage tabagique:méthode de sevrage:méthode individuelle:approche pharmacologique:substitution nicotinique Index. décimale : TA 6.3.3 Gestion du tabac sur les lieux de travail Résumé : In the workplace, employees need to be protected from the health threats of exposure to environmental tobacco smoke. There is a significant cost to employers associated with employee smoking at work, yet the uptake and development of a well‐defined policy on smoking are not widespread, and few policies tackle the issue through promotion of smoking cessation. Such an approach could not only reduce costs associated with smoking at work, but also have a direct impact on public health. GlaxoSmithKline has implemented a voluntary programme of smoking cessation support for its employees in the UK. The 10 week programme offers a series of one‐to‐one support sessions with a trained occupational health adviser, as well as access to nicotine replacement therapy patches. At 12 months (n = 123), 25 participants (20%) were non‐smokers, of whom 19 (15%) stated that they had not smoked at all for the 12 month period. The other six (5%) had relapsed, but had since tried again and quit successfully. An additional three (2%) classed themselves as non‐smokers but still smoked occasionally. Fifty‐two per cent of participants stated that regular face‐to‐face contact and monitoring of progress were particularly useful in helping them to stop smoking. This provides compelling support for the active promotion and support of smoking cessation among employees.
